While songs like “Enter Sandman” and “Sad But True” might give the impression that Metallica was given a polish to their sound, Metallica rocks just as hard and ferocious as anything I have ever heard. And I’m a huge Stooges fan, which means I’ve heard some troglodyte guitar-and-drum songs.

I’ve never been a huge metalhead, my father was though, but I grew up listening... read more

Description: Amazon.com essential recording Called "the Black Album" by many (due to its monochrome cover), Metallica marks the group's entrance into the mainstream, with shorter songs, simpler song structures, and slower tempos overall. That said, this is an excellent album, featuring some of the best songwriting Metallica has ever done. "Enter Sandman," "Wherever I May Roam," and "God That Failed," despite being slower and more groove-oriented than the band's earlier work, feature the same heavy riffs and heavier rhythms that have always been a feature of Metallica's music.

Top 11 Metal Albums of the 1990s (11 music items)

"This mega-selling album also marked the end of an era, as it hit stores just one month before Nirvana's 'Nevermind' signaled the arrival of the alternative nation. The Black Album found Metallica distilling their sprawling, epic metal machinations into radio-ready nuggets, and the massive success of singles like 'Enter Sandman,' 'Sad but True' and 'The Unforgiven' made Metallica international superstars -- much to the chagrin of hard-core metalheads everywhere.

"None more black “Enter Sandman” and “Sad but True” packed massive riffs, but the hardcore gagged at Metallica’s blatant commercialism. The “Nothing Else Matters” video was extra jaw-dropping, showing the lads being (gasp!) sensitive in the studio. Still, the band’s newly pared-down assault converted millions, making thrash seem almost mainstream. Standout tracks: “Enter Sandman,” “Sad but True”"

"The album that moved thrash-metal onto a whole new plane. This is the sound of Metallica growing up, spreading out and making music that’s always heavy in intent but also shaded with subtlety and grace. Astonishingly, even the ballads manage to work. Standout track: “Enter Sandman”"
